Pros

The earning potential is limitless. I don't know of many jobs that give someone straight out of college the ability to make six figures a year. My sales team is like a big family. We do potlucks, happy hours and intra-team challenges like softball, paintball, dodge ball, etc. Upper management is approachable and easy to talk to.

Cons

Work/life balance is skewed for sales people. We are 100% responsible for our own accounts so we are on call 24/7/365. We get calls all hours of the day and taking a vacation without hearing from the office would be a miracle. Because we are 100% commission based (once out of sales training), we never really know what our paycheck will look like.

Pros

Pro - Paid Training Pro - The financial rewards are there to back up the time / hard-work necessary to become successful Pro - Working with like minding people who are focused on becoming leaders in the logistics industry Pro - Help from fellow account executives / trainers / managers at every stage of your career to assist in your personal success Pro - Office happy hours/ quarterly outings around downtown Chicago Pro – The ability to work in one our satellite offices around the country (Tampa FL, Lexington KY, Charleston SC, Austin TX, Denver CO, etc. )

Cons

Very time intensive job. You can expect to put in 45 - 65 hours per week in the office and be on call after normal business hours. The cons for being a TQL employee stem mainly from the industry we serve. Many of the clients/carriers are operating 24/7/365, so as a result we are available to them 24/7/365 when they need us to solve problems.

Pros

You won't find another job in downtown Chicago where you can wear a polo and shorts, have ESPN on the TVs, and work in a young and enthusiastic environment while making six figures. Does it take a lot of hard to work to get there...absolutely. If it was easy, everyone would be lining up to work in the truck industry. This is a job where you get out what you put in. If you're looking to make sure you use all your vacation days, enjoy hour lunches, and surf the internet during work then don't waste your time. If you are looking to work your butt off, put in the time and dedication it takes and understand that you could be making six figures at the age of 24, then this very well could be for you.

Cons

The first year is tough and stressful, no reason to sugarcoat it. If you understand that there is life at the end of the tunnel and that your dedication can and will result in a huge increase in salary then you'll be just fine. You won't find instant success here, it takes time and it takes work. Some people simply don't want to put in the time and sacrfice it takes.
